Quartz with chlorite inclusions from Dingle
A while ago we went on a family trip to the Dingle Peninsula where, of course, we just HAD TO do some collecting ;) After a while of digging in the upper layer of soil by the cliffs, Klaudia found this little, beautiful quartz crystal with lovely, green inclusions of chlorite. What a treat! And yeah... lucky Klaudia, yhymm ;)

Malgosia, thank you. A very well-written article, congratulations. Have you found me on FB, yet?
ReplyDeleteIt resembles like we have in Kharan part of Balochistan. Yours one has got good clarity though

ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful! I live in the United States, however, I am going to Ireland this July (2017). It is my "make a wish "vacations! This is the one country I have always wanted to visit! My ancestors were from Ireland and I have always been drawn to there!
ReplyDeleteWe will be staying in Dublin. Can you tell me where I can go look for crystals? I am wheelchair bound, so it would need to be accessible.
Thank you, in advance, for your help!
